I have seen blockchain driven KYC systems where you encrypt your data where 3 party verifying system will verifies you for KYC standards. You are right that KYC is too risky for our personal info can be used for unwanted issues.

This collapse must give founders and advisers of ICOs a new approach. We need strong and well designed projects which must have a solution for every financial problem. Most of the ICO even can not catch the market condition and sell their ETH becuse they were not funded enough for development. Without enough money development will take more time which will make investors unhappy and sell their coins too.

I think most of the people now holding their coins because generally we have lower trade volumes when we compare last year. In addition many people has lost too much that selling  coin for a 1/15 prize it worth nothing. Professionals may have better solution for your question.

Last February  ETH prize was around 1500 $ whish is all the time high and NEO prize is about 161 $ so its basic mat to see that NEO has dropped more then ETH. On the other hand now total supply of ETH is 103,694,581 whereas NEO total supply is 65,000,000. ETH is more popular and more developed coin when we compare NEO. But is must be your decision to find the best solution for yourself. I keep both of them.

Note: Do not forget that you will able to harvest  4 GAS in one year if you hold 20 NEO.

Because cryptocurrency has a huge potential for near future. Digital money will seems to be next revolution on finance. My opinion is any combination of traditional finance with Cryptocurrency will be needed near future.

After many ICO from last year people started to learn that it is not the way to earn money.Any ICO needs time for development. At bull season any of the ICO tokens can hit x5 x10 las year, but in this bearish market condition its changed normally it goes down 5x-10x.

I think most of the people here already invested any of the ICOs last year, some get good profit some lost a lot. But for now in this bearish market condition and regulation issues nobody wants to invest any of the ICO even some of them can be promising.

It was very disappointing issue for me that ETH has go down from 100$. Most of the ICO are can not funded last few months so demand of the ETH has go down also. I believe after bullish run we will see again more demand for ETH.

Many of us has stressed because of the rapid drop of the ETH, but even its 50 $ it will not change so many things for me because I already lost a lot from ETH. Lets see what will happen next bullish market.

There is no doubt on that, as soon as ICO markets get more attracted by people ETH will again create a demand for itself. Bearish market kills ICOs, ICOs killing ETH now.

Crazy bearish market condition has given a very high damage to Etherium prize. I also try to hold some eth to buy some cheap ERC20 coins but now I am not sure it was a right decission, I have to wait for a bull run to move any direction.

All crypto market has down after killer bearish condition. People get stressed and sell their coins in lower prize. I think it is not for everyone to see their hard earned money goes down -%10 everyday.

I would never invest any ICO which has a  anonymous team. Why they need to be  anonymous? If you are doing a crowdfunding then investors have a right to know team experience in every detail. There is no way to pay for a  anonymous ICO for me.

Indeed we need some regulation for ICO. People are not aware of the scams that causing a lot of loses. Moreover this regulation ought to be not so strict which can help development of new projects faster.

I am not sure this can happen soon. Most of the government seems to be afraid of crypto which is not under their control. We may see some more county could accept crypto as legal investment but it will be not all of them.

I think its already ended. If they are not blind Founders of the ICOs has to be find out that its easy to see that funding of the projects is going harder and harder. They need to be more qualified and much more attention to community needs.

Its not easy to trust any of the new altcoins, first of all I try to do my research about project, I try to find out if the project aims to solve a real lifer problem. Moreover I try to check if there are other similar  projects which can effect the success of the project. If after all everything seems right then i may trust a little more

This industry is a place where millions of dollars are exchanging everyday.Because of this amount and lack o punishment scammers are attracted. We must be always careful and never invest anything we would not afford.

Of course Cryptocurrency will survive, now its like a 10 year of child, I think the best years of Cryptocurrency is not come yet. After maturation we may see a rapid growth.

Investing an ICO can be both a good opportunity at the same time it can be a disaster. When you look most of the ICO last few months most of them even can not reach the hard cap moreover they do not collect enough money for development. We need to do our own choose for best investment opportunities.
